Didn't receive it yet lol. Probably tomorrow or day after tomorrow. I have a thermaltake fanspeed controller at the moment which only controlled one fan...
Yesterday I opened up both side panels and my temperatures dropped about 5~10c. This case doesn't seem to have good airflow at all.

With the both side panels off the CPU temperature dropped from 60c load to 55c load. 5c drop with no side panels....hhhmmm...

maybe you have cpu cooler faced upwards and it is sucking hot air raising directly from your video cards?
anyway it will be interesting to hear how the new coolers help improve on situation!
and how do you find the stock coolers quiet or not very much?

I have the cpu cooler sitting sideways now. The stock fans are very quiet, the only loud thing is my 4870 fans. Hopefully the new fan speed controller will help with the airflow a bit. I also need to tuck some more wires.

Oh Thar - lol - I just looked at the title you gave me in the OP. I only wish I had that kind of rig and video card power. I've updated my rig specs to what I've actually got. You can change that title to "Dreams of Grandeur" if ya want :-p

Lol...maybe I will
Just installed the Scythe Kaze Master Ace and the temps are looking good!
CPU temp dropped to 55c full load!
